I'm a rifle guy all the way.....hell, I'd be just as likely to get a deer with a bow as I would chasing them through the woods with a stout stick. Never got the hang of the bow thing.....

I was working a load up, not dialing in! A few clicks right, 1 click down, and I'm ready...
Speer 225 gr. BT, nice ballistic coefficient - retains energy and has a nice flight curve out to over 400 yds -
The BOSS has shot consistently under a minute, the pic posted is the best group I have ever gotten with the rifle - A-Bolt stainless Stalker.
I shot Silhouette competition for years (Hunters Pistol), and practice with a .41 mag, .44 mag, and .454 using 1-qt. oil jugs at 100m; Can't say that I can group like that with any of those pistols, OR with my Glock model 20. Maybe I should try running a mile, first?

...curious about the .308 mentioned above;
I checked with http://www.handloads.com/calc/index.html (pretty cool set up, there), and, using a 165 grain boattail round, you would have to exceed 3800 fps. at the muzzle to be 1" high at 100 yds., and dead on at 200; That exceeds the capability of the .30-378, not sure what you're shooting? (Not to be nit-picky, here...)
Nope, no pics of the .338, it looks pretty ordinary... - I COULD take a pic, I 'spose, anybody really care?
